No because that other ask was spot on because I remember reading that jinki literally fainted once because he was nearly hit by a stage light (AND COULD DIED) early on in their career and he got made fun of by the media because of it??? and I'm sure that wasn't the only time something like that happened. Imagine being a young adult and having to deal with that shit 24/7 and on top of any little thing you did, you also had to shoulder what your members did as well. no one should go through that, especially a person who was fresh out of being a child. And it's just wild to me that that's never talked about and after reading that ask, it really is because his mental health issues can't be woobified, which is a shame because I remember a previous ask talking about how his journey with substance abuse in particular was inspiring.

+ add that before it happened, he was seen limping on stage because he was injured and that when ppl were asking for an explanation for the stage light incident from the pd he replied that jk was just acting like a coward and also add that the fancam of him fainting is still up on yt. and this is just like the small part of it, like honestly idk why shawols act flaggergasted abt him having a low self esteem you just need to watch (don't do it tho) one minute of that fuck ass reality show they did during their rookie era and you'll get it .

and this is all esem doing like i think if you decide to debut a group that young you should work on building some kind of yk system that shields them from shit! but an agency won't ever be interested in that, and that's why ppl debuting should be older!
